USA Healthcare Facts

In 2003, of the roughly 3,900 nonfederal, short-term, acute care
general hospitals in the United States, the majority—about 62
percent—were nonprofit. The rest included government hospitals (20
percent) and for-profit hospitals (18 percent).
In exchange for tax-exemptions, estimated to total $12.6 billion in
2002, nonprofit hospitals are expected to provide community benefits.
